Cefuroxime-d3 is deuterium labeled Cefuroxime (sodium). Cefuroxime sodium is an orally active second-generation cephalosporin antibiotic with increased stability to β-lactamase. Cefuroxime sodium has a broad spectrum activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria^[1].

Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs^[1].

Shanghai Jinpan Biotech Co Ltd has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
